| Abstract |
The funeral costumes are symbols that represent the degree of relationship among family and relatives. Among of all relationship, the most important and intimate relationship are between parents and children. Therefore, this pater discusses the funeral costume for the children to those who have the name of “Father” and “Mother”. This paper intends to discuss this issue from three different perspectives: (1)Male-dominated culture structure─the superiority of male、man holds the authority of marriage the differentiation between male and female. (2)The tradition of family inheritance─the responsibility to pass the torch into next generation. (3)The representation of obedience-civilization─have more children、love parents rather than wife and mistress、focus on formal wife rather than mistress. Finally, the conclusion is on the issue of differences between male nad female rather than on dominant and dominated relationship between male and female.
